Also Hanks Jazz Festival will be posted once the schedule is finalized (April 27-29).

What’s NextWe are now gearing up for Concert, Jazz and Chamber season. This is the part of the year where the band breaks into smaller performance groups: 3 concert bands, 3 jazz bands and multiple small chamber groups (trios, quartets etc..) Most students are in the correct groups based on their class period. However, some students may be moved around to a more appropriate ensemble for their playing level.

Leadership Opportunities are available for each performance group and ALL GRADE LEVELS. We will select students to lead our chamber ensembles. These ensembles range in size from Trios through Quintets. Students, If your interested please contact one of the directors.

We will continue to develop our student leaders throughout the year and will select next year’s band leadership in May. My Fair Share ScheduleThe total My Fair Share amount is now due.
